The scenario blog I posted before this one also enhanced my knowledge of digital rights and responsibilities. I think it is important to recognize that we as students have obligations to others in our use of technology and should not impede the rights of others through our own use of digital technology tools. Through the scenario, I learned more about the rights we have when it comes to others taking photographs without consent and how this can impede on the privacy rights of others. I also learned that defaming others (especially teachers!) can lead to major consequences for us as students. I would encourage my readers to check out my scenario blog and click the links there to learn more about digital rights and responsibilities. To read it, click HERE.
Although a bit off topic, one item I found interesting on my Feedly reader was a Brock University Student Blog post on Experience BU. As a Sr. Career Assistant at Career Services at Brock, I constantly get questions on how to get more involved on campus. Experience BU is a great way to find out about upcoming events and ways to get involved! And since the year is coming to end rather quickly, there are many students wishing they had become more involved. I encourage these students to check out ExperienceBU and all the great events still happening! It is not too late to get involved!

Thanks for reading!

Hey Scarlet,
ReplyDeleteI took a different approach to VoiceThread, however, your emphasis on the importance of auditory communication have made me think! I now realize the power of personal touch through adding a recording to a presentation or collaboration task. Although I didn't argue this same idea my post, I did argue that I feel as though my personal opinion opinion is largely swayed as I, as an individual, personally like seeing text and being able to refer back to the points mentioned. Audio recordings would make this more difficult for me! Overall, great post! Always love reading your work!
Thanks Natalie! I also agree with you on text being easier as a reference point! But I do think there is some value to verbal communication - a form of communication that is so often missing online!
